In other words, if the probe is connected to the terminal DQ, the output of the data from the terminal DQ is stopped, or a specific logic is output, so that the data stored in the memory cell 10 cannot be read.
  • FIG. 2 is a diagram depicting a detailed configuration example of a circuit including the load detection circuit 40 , reference load output section 50 and comparison circuit 60 . These circuits, 40 , 50 and 60 , are disposed for the number of terminals (n+1 in the case of the example in FIG. 2 ).
  • the circuit 40 , 50 or 60 is comprised of an input resistor 41 , comparator 42 , output resistor 43 , first reference resistor 44 and second reference resistor 45 .
  • One end of the input resistor 41 is connected to the terminal DQ 0 and the other end is connected to the comparator 42 .

  • the current to be input to the terminal DQ 0 when a probe is connected to the terminal DQ is different from when an IC for the controller is connected (normal status). Therefore if the reference voltage is adjusted so that this current is outputted when a probe is connected to the terminal DQ, the circuits 40 , 50 and 60 output a predetermined voltage value only at this time. For example, if a probe is connected, the circuits 40 , 50 and 60 output a voltage value corresponding to logic “HIGH”, and outputs a voltage value corresponding to “LOW” otherwise.
  • the reference voltage in the comparator 42 is adjusted by changing the resistance values of the output resistor 43 and second reference resistor 45 .
  • the reference voltage can be adjusted.
  • the first reference voltage 44 can also be adjusted from the outside.
  • the reference voltage at the plus side of the comparator 42 becomes the reference load, and is compared with the voltage value at the minus side, so the comparator 42 corresponds to the load detection circuit 40 and the comparison circuit 60 , and the output resistor 43 and the second reference resistor 45 correspond to the reference load output section 50 .

  • This output signal Comp or the detection signal Detect corresponds to the control signal which is outputted from the comparison circuit 60 to the input and output buffer 30 .
  • FIG. 3 is a diagram depicting a configuration example of the input and output buffer 30 . This is a block diagram in the case of stopping the output of data read from the memory cell 10 .
  • the input and output buffer 30 is comprised of the NAND circuit 31 , and the first and second buffer circuits 32 , 33 .
  • the NAND circuit 31 is connected to the command decoder 20 and the NOR circuit 47 (see FIG. 2 ), to which the Enable signal from the command decoder 20 and the output signal from the comparison circuit 60 are input, and from which the output signal OutputEnable is output.
  • the first buffer 32 stores the output from the memory cell 10 , and outputs it to the terminals DQ 0 -DQn.
  • the first buffer 32 is a buffer corresponding to the data read from the memory cell 10 .
  • the first buffer 32 has a three-state circuit configuration, and can enter “HIGH”, “LOW” and high impedance (hereafter “HIGH-Z”) status. Whether the first buffer 32 can enter “HIGH-Z” status or not depends on the output signal OutputEnable.

  • the ReadEnable signal which indicates the reading from the memory cell 10
  • the output signal OutputEnable of the NAND circuit 31 is “LOW” since the input is “HIGH”.
  • a probe is connected to the terminal DQ 0 , for example, in this status, a signal to indicate the connection of the probe is output from the circuits 40 , 50 and 60 , so the output signal Comp becomes “HIGH”. And the detection signal Detect becomes “LOW”.
  • the detection signal “LOW” is input to the NAND circuit 31 in a status where the ReadEnable signal “HIGH” is being outputted from the command decoder 20 , the output signal OutputEnable becomes “HIGH”. Therefore the first buffer circuit 32 outputs “HIGH-Z”, and the reading from the memory cell 10 is stopped. In other words, if a probe is connected to the terminal DQ 0 , the reading from the memory cell 10 is stopped.

  • the AND circuit 36 is connected to the memory cell 10 and the NOR circuit 47 (see FIG. 2 ), and decides the logic according to the output signal from the comparison circuit 60 .
  • the first buffer 37 stores the output from the AND circuit 36 and outputs it to the terminals DQ 0 -DQn.
  • the first buffer 37 is a buffer corresponding to the reading of the data from the memory cell 10 .
  • the first buffer 37 is a three-state circuit configuration, and can enter “HIGH”, “LOW” and high impedance (hereafter “HIGH-Z”) statuses. Whether the first buffer 37 can enter “HIGH-Z” status or not depends on the output signal OutputEnable.
  • the first buffer 32 enters “HIGH-Z” status, where electronic connection is cleared, and output to the terminals DQ 0 -DQn is stopped.
  • the output signal OutputEnable is “LOW”, logic according to the input is output.
  • the second buffer 38 as well can enter the three statuses: “HIGH-Z”, “LOW”, and “HIGH” based on the signal from the command decoder 20 .
  • the second buffer 38 is a buffer corresponding to the writing to the memory cell 10 .
  • FIG. 7 is a waveform diagram depicting the operation of each signal in the configurations shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 5 . This is an example of the case if a probe is connected to the terminal DQ in normal status, and then the status is returned to normal status again.
  • a probe is connected to the terminal DQ 0 , for example, in this status, a signal to indicate the connection of the probe is outputted from the circuits 40 , 50 and 60 , so the output signal Comp becomes “HIGH”. And the detection signal Detect becomes “LOW”.
  • the detection signal “LOW” is inputted to the AND circuit 36 in a status where the ReadEnable signal “HIGH” is being outputted from the command decoder 20 , the output signal thereof becomes “LOW” regardless the logic of the memory cell 10 . Therefore the first buffer circuit 37 outputs “LOW”, and the reading from the memory cell 10 is fixed to “LOW”. In other words, if a probe is connected to the terminal DQ 0 , the reading from the memory cell 10 maintains “LOW” all the time.
  • the status returns to normal status and the output signal Comp becomes “LOW”.
  • the RESET signal is input from the input end of the NOR circuit 48 shown in FIG. 2 (“HIGH”), and each circuit is returned to normal status.
  • the operation performed is the same as the above mentioned normal status.
  • the present invention can also be applied to the configuration shown in FIG. 6 .
  • the load value detected by the load detection circuit 40 is converted into a digital value by the AD conversion circuit 70 , and is output to the digital comparison circuit 61 .
  • the digital value to indicate a load if a probe is connected to the terminal DQ, is outputted from the reference register 51 , and the digital comparison circuit 61 compares this reference value and the digital value from the AD conversion circuit 70 , and outputs the control signal if they match.
  • the output from the memory cell 10 is stopped, or a fixed specific logic is continuously outputted if this control signal is input, so that the data stored in the memory cell 10 cannot be read. Since data is not output from the terminal DQ to the analyzer if the probe is connected, the data cannot be analyzed.
  • the circuit shown in FIG. 2 is an example, and any circuit configuration may be used only if the output signal Comp or the detection signal Detect, to indicate whether a probe is connected or not, can be output.
  • the OR circuit 46 may be an AND circuit, or the latch circuit (NOR circuit 47 or 48 ) may be removed.
